KNOW THE DIFFERENCE CHRISTIAN OR CHRIST-FOLLOWER

 Accordingly, Christians are people of the faith, clearly set forth in the Word of God, but Christ followers will be people of faith—that is, any faith or religion. Christians believe that the right doctrine and theology—in other words, the right faith—are essential for salvation, but Christ-followers will believe that doctrine and theology are irrelevant because what you do is more important than what you believe. Christians believe there is only one truth, clearly set forth in God’s Word of truth, but Christ-followers will believe there is truth in every religion.

I now understand the full deception of community, unity and service that is taking over God’s church.

8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit,
according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles 
of the world, and not according to Christ.

COLLOSIANS  2 : 8

As a Christian we know all the wonderful things Christ did in His ministry while here on this earth.  And all religions will admit the services Jesus teaches us to do are good for all mankind. To feed the hungry, provide water, housing, clothing and care for the sick and imprisoned. All these the world can come together in community, unity and serve, following in the steps of Jesus’ teachings. So no matter what faith, what religion you are, you can be a Christ-follower.

14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers.
For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness?
And what communion has light with darkness?

2 CORINTHIANS  6 : 14

Community, unity, service and following in the steps of Jesus has become the main teachings of the church, rather than the gospel of Jesus Christ.

46 Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, 
and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer 
and to rise from the dead the third day,
47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be 
preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

LUKE  24 : 46, 47

If you want to be a Christ-follower, just believe and receive and you are now a member of God’s family.  It’s all about love and only love. They are never told they must admit they are sinners and must repent from their sins and that Jesus died on the cross for their sins to save then from God’s wrath, and only when Jesus sends His Holy Spirit to live in them will their eyes be opened to God’s truth. That Jesus in the only way to God the Father and heaven.

6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through Me.

JOHN  14 : 6

How instead of waiting for God’s calling on your life to serve Him, the church now demands you join a community or small group.  They’ll give you a questionnaire to decide where they can use you for their vision, their goal.  Know if you question them they’ll say you are causing confusion and upsetting the unity of the church.  They will ostracize you and even call you a Pharisee for not following their vision, their goals.

The true Christians know this is not biblical and you should know that you are now the enemy of this Christ-follower church.  For we can not and will not be apart of this one world community, unity serving church

Inevitably, with unity at all costs becoming the foundation of the world and churches, Christian is already becoming a brand of shame. In the emerging new world, Christian says that you are intolerant, divisive, religiously bigoted, judgmental, and legalistic. In other words, Christian says to the world that you believe when God says there is only one way to God and none other that God actually means it. The world never has tolerated this faith very well.
